#Opinion : Since 2024, both Razor and Rassie have introduced 19 debutants each. The contrast is stark: nine of Razor’s 2024/25 debutants were on the field during the All Blacks’ record loss to the Springboks in Wellington, while only four of Rassie’s 2024/25 debutants featured in the same fixture. Beyond that, most of Rassie’s new players were blooded in lower-pressure games against Wales, Portugal, Italy, and Georgia.
And yet the perception couldn’t be more different. Rassie is praised globally for developing youth and building depth towards the 2027 World Cup, while Razor receives little acknowledgment for exposing the same number of players and doing so in far tougher circumstances, where every match is treated as must-win.
The explanation is simple: Rassie has the luxury of time and tolerance. Two World Cup titles earned him the right to lose matches in the name of experimentation for their 3rd consecutive RWC. Outside of clashes with the All Blacks where I believe the public demand the win, he can rotate freely. Razor, by contrast, must blood players in the furnace of top-tier test rugby, with little forgiveness for short-term setbacks in a nation demand 100% win rate in a calendar year. Which is almost impossible.
That leaves New Zealand rugby with a choice: either schedule more matches against lower-ranked nations to ease players into the test arena, or we accept that a couple of losses each year is the price of building genuine depth. Razor can’t have it both ways and neither can the fans.
Razor is building something bigger than most people realise. It feels messy now, but so did Rassie’s rebuild. Back then people doubted him too now he sits with two World Cups and the deepest squad in rugby wit the respect of the whole rugby community.
THINK !!

@CommonsLeader@HenrySmithUK@PennyMordaunt@DefraGovUK As unpalatable as Trophy Hunting is it places a significant value on the big game in Africa and incentivises local communities to protect their habitat. The reality is that hunting is far less damaging than subsistence farming to the species depicted in the video clip.
Please show your support for @HenrySmithUK's Hunting Trophies (Import Prohibition) Bill. It passed through committee stage today. He is working with @PennyMordaunt and the Government to ban the import of hunting trophies to protect endangered species. @DefraGovUK
